Could this concept be adapted to a "President Archer" Movie?
Kind of like how Harrison Ford did for "Air Force One"?

I'm sure Skydance will come up with a better movie plot than that. One that will have many more people than just the tiny percentage of ENT fans ponying up for theater tickets.
The last Kirk and Spock film didn't exactly get them queuing down the street so let's hope there's some innovation brewing.
Unrelated but I really don't understand this move in general. Star Trek has a few great films but less than half the total slate. It's a TV franchise at its strongest, I can't see this being the smart play.
That's because Paramount completely sucks at marketing. Let's hope Skydance learned that lesson.
We can certainly hope. Otherwise it'll be time for another drought and then an eventual revival that everyone will hate lamenting the good old Kurzman days of real Star Trek.
I think Skydance is quite aware of the value of the property they now control, and will step things up in a way Paramount couldn't. But I also think that Trek on TV's days are coming to an end, for good or ill.
But to be honest, sometimes a drought can be a good thing. If Skydance chooses to not make Trek a high priority, that's fine too. Because rushing things rarely works well.

Even if they did a President Archer movie, I see no reason to assume it would be anything like Air Force One, which was not the first, nor the only movie about a US President or head of state.
It doesn't have to be, it's just a example of a popular movie with a head of state as the main character.
